which matches
#1891 (comment)
so that this issue is a duplicate of your
#1891
which should have been fixed via
#1893
and
#1894
which are included in the SUSE rear23a RPM package,
cf. the section about
"rear / rear116 / rear1172a / rear118a / rear23a" in
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery

Your eniesdbs101_RearRecoverDebug.txt excerpts above show
that you use the old mount_url before #1894
so that you need to update your ReaR to one where that issue is fixed.

If it is not fixed with a current ReaR you should of course reopen this issue.
